Preschool Readiness - 2 1/2 years of age to 3 years - Children in this group are introduced to a bit more structure within the routine of their day, and to participate in some of our more exciting preschool experiences. Preschool-readiness children play and explore while being provided with structured time periods for small group time, story time, and project. Children are encouraged to practice individual skills for their routines (put their lunch plate away, use the potty, wash own hands, etc) and they are encouraged to practice skills appreciated by the community (picking up, helping a friend). Children are placed with a primary caregiver. Caregivers train annually in early childhood development, CPR and first aid. The ratio is 1:8. Child-Centered Preschool Programs - 3 years through 5 years - Mister McGregor's offers both half day and full day preschool experiences. Recent brain research emphasizes the importance of forming patterns and helping children understand the co nnections to learning. Patterning information means organizing and associating new information with previously developed mental hooks. Using a theme-based curriculum children and their teachers explore ideas and topics in many different ways, often expanding on the children's culture, environment or shared experiences. Our program integrates literacy, social studies, math, music, and art. There are daily opportunities for sensory, open-ended art, free-play, and an expansive child-friendly playground.
